Whal could cause a man to engag
a room in a nice hotel in L. A. only
to retul'll to the ship prior to mid- nite
or the same day? In particular in­,
lance it seems that the sailor lad
had a lapse of memory to such an
{'.- tent he could not remember the
Bame of the hotel nor the street
upon which it was situated. For better
explanation see Dur vell or Arthur.

Now that the Aviation Unit is ab­sent
" Jocko" Machado and his stooge
" K" BI'own are endeavoring to re-'
cover from a slight attack of " wing

all indebtedness in port be liquidated
before the ship sails.
All men should promptly settle

obligation-. ----
